But now? It is being devoured and loved like crazy by my fellow readers. In fact, my own book-buddy R just lost her mind over it. So if I couldn’t convince you to devour it with my review, maybe R can.

R: I am EXHAUSTED! WRECKED! DRAINED! My whole body aches from sobbing and laughing and forcing my lungs into submission. I haven’t slept and I’ve eaten every chocolate-ish thing I could find in the house, including a bag of leftover chocolate chips from Valentine’s Day.

I’m at 72% and dreading the impending book hangover like it’s the Apocalypse. IT’S AWESOME!!! Maryse, thank you for getting me. She said the magic words, “…it’s for those of us that love those Suanne Laqueur, Emma Scott, Renee Carlino type of epic stories.” Yes, yes, and yes. <3 <3 <3 Author Leylah Attar, you are a rock star. This book, people. All the feels. Literally.

Emma: Yay! I have this on my Kindle, ready to go…

Maryse: DO IT!!!!! !!!!

R: Yes! Do it!

Emma: Sorry, I’m just stuck at one line up there. *sniff*…<3 Maryse!!

R: Duh! I told Maryse I didn’t think I had book blurb catnip, but I have book review catnip! And Maryse nailed it!

Maryse: *happy wiggle*!!!! !!!!!! <3

R: This book hurts on a physical level. I’m just…gah…

Maryse: R. I know it!!!!!

Marina: LOVED, LOVED Mists of the Serengeti. Will stay with me forever.

Amy: OMG. Serengeti was beautiful. BEAUTIFUL. Heart-wrenching, sometimes difficult, and tear-inducing, but above all else it was beautiful. I can’t even think of what to read next. Another sure sign of a great read.

R: Mists of the Serengeti has had my stomach in giant knots the whole way through.

Sharing on Twitter and Facebook! Congratulations in advance to the lucky winner!

I have had a love of reading, ever since I learned to read. In high school I read Gone with the Wind. My English teacher was so impressed & told me it was so hard to get students to read any book that long. I had read it more then twice!!! That was my 1st Epic Novel!!

Thanks for the chance!! I can’t just pick one!! The Gamble by Kristen Ashley and Archer’s Voice by Mia Sheridan are my go-to books. I have probably read them a dozen times.
However one book blew my mind, and not in the way you are probably thinking. Transcendence by Shay Savage is proof that with the right characters and imagery, you can make a great story out of anything. I ready this back last year, and I still think about it all the time! I hope this encourages some more people to take a chance on this book. You will not be disappointed! Thank you Maryse for everything you do!!

Oh geez, I was so excited I forgot to put my most epic read… I’d have to say I just finished the longest book ever a couple weeks ago… The Last Hour of Gann by R. Lee Smith. After that, I’d probably vote for the Harry Potter series, because I read them back to back as one book, as a bedtime story out loud to/with my daughter when she was younger.

Loved loved this book. And I almosted peed on my self . When they were eating with the tribe. And she was sitting in his lap. And the old lady gave her a bracelet. And he told her that it was a water drop that landed on her head. But when they got back to the truck he told her the old lady spit on her. I would ❤to have this book.

Thank you for the giveaway. Smh for most epic read….:) I have a few rereads that are personal favorites and really enjoy different genres. I can’t think of just one right now so will go with the one I think I’ve reread the most which is Thoughtless.

I am from Africa so would love to be the winner of this book plus the fact that if you, Maryse recommend it highly I just know it will be something worthy of my bookshelf.
The Serengeti plains are gorgeous and I know this will be a gorgeous read too.

About Me

I am happily addicted to reading but I need to expend my book energy (especially when one puts me in an emotional frenzy - SO fun!). So, I release my feelings about the stories, by writing them down here. It's my book therapy. [ read more ]
